Amazing use of third party.
Wonderful game, ost and mechanics.

Too bad it was placed on the Wii.

Great game, but NMH2 was shit.
>>
>>337198114
i believe they re-released it on the ps3 with bonus content
>>
Best story, characters (Except for Harvey and whatever number 2's name was), contender for best soundtrack, and pretty okay gameplay. I really didn't think Suda could make a story as well as Killer7 but this is almost there.
>>
There pretty much the only two games that ever made good use of wii mote and justified it's existence.
>>
>>337198292
Personally I thought NMH2 was an overall improvement. Why was it shit?

>Spend 5 minutes to get to side mission
>Get hit once and fail
>Can't restart mission
>Drive around for 5 more minutes just to try again

It was a pretty good game but god damn there were a lot of inexcusable flaws.
>>
>>337198956

The PS3 version fixed this.
>>
Bad game with good boss fights and a good story. It takes a special kind of person to come up with a story about a guy who won a beam katanna on eBay and a con artist who establishes a fake hitman organization and then picks a hitman to kill off her best members to make back the bounty on them masqueraded as a "United Assassins Association",

Besides that, I wouldn't write home about it to anyone who has played a good action-adventure game like Zelda. Since that's what it is: Zelda if it was hard (assuming that you play through the game without upgrading your katanna and don't get the upgrades like a babby), but with an empty world and the most boring mini-games on planet earth.
>>
>>337198472
Not him, but the story was a big step down from the first game. The gameplay and at least four of the bosses were great, but the rest just didn't stack up.
>>
>>337199138
I remember seeing some video a while back that defended the empty world as being thematic or something. Can't really remember how though.
>>
>>337197743
100% radical

Travis is my dream Smash character but NEVER EVER
>>
Does people prefer the PS3 or Wii version?
>>
>>337199138
Dawg, I didn't know you could upgrade your beam sword until the last boss, which at that point I didn't even try to. I want to replay the first but the mini games in nmh1 suck ass and the overworld/bike controls can suck my dick.
>>
>>337199401
PS3 version is objectively superior
>>
>>337199401
Wii, the little gimmick of hacking the wii mote helps you immerse in battles.

Are you kidding me? Mowing grass was awesome

>>337197743
buggy shit but the best game of suda. the others are just too half-assed.
>>
>>337199298
It was intended by Suda as a way to show that Travis leads an empty life of going from target to target while he lives in a motel room and watches anime on VHS.
It's the reason for his "gotta find that ticket to paradise" monologue during the first boss. He wants to find a way out.
>>
>>337199298
The game breaks the 4th wall a fair amount and equates the player with Travis pretty directly. As a result of this, and given the direction games in general had/have been going in ("bigger" worlds, more content) the game can be read as a critique on gamers and trends in game culture. The loser who chances upon the ultimate weapon can kill the biggest baddies in the city, but first he has to perform menial tasks to accrue ludicrous amounts of money to gain access to the "fun" content. The dull nature of the mini games is meant to highlight travis' "reality" as a loser, while the high octane boss fights are meant to open the player's eyes both in regards to the enjoyable gameplay and to the dumb shit they're putting up with to get to it.

Best boss track ever

>started with NMH2
>NMH1 combat looks like complete trash in comparison, not interested in trying it
>mfw I've ruined several games for myself by doing this
>DMC3 by playing DMC4, Earthbound by playing Mother 3, ZoE by playing ZoE2, MHFU by playing MH3U
at least Killer 7 looks different enough to still be enjoyable when I get around to it

I liked NMH more than NMH2.

Why not give Heroes' Paradise a shot?

I really like NMH. That said I'm not going to pretend it's some amazing or great game. Because it's not. You have to make an argument for it being good. It has a lot of grinding, combat that's fun but eventually becomes tedious and simple, shitty pointless filler overworld, and a complete lack of level design. Even some of the bosses (which many, including I, consider the games highlight) are lackluster.

But it does offer a great original story, some wild ass character, great OST and some strong satire of gaming/otaku culture. And I think for that, can be recommended cautiously.

NMH offers this mood/atmosphere that I've never gotten from another game. It's empty and surreal, pathetic, poorly designed and yet can be exciting and interesting.


It's a specific kind of game that needs a specific kind of person to enjoy it. Either one who has a lot of patience and an appreciation for the strange, or someone who simply has bad taste.

The music video for that wasn't in the North American version.

I only knew about that song because I played Child of Eden

>>337199051

Good to know. I may have to give it a try.

>>337199413
Mod your Wii & use a max cash code.
>>
>>337201115
I remember people throwing a huge fit over the fact the EU (and the JAP I think) version didn't have blood. I really didn't care for it and preferred to have the music video instead.
>>
>>337197743
Couldn't get through the first hour. This is one of the few games where I genuinely think people are fucking with me when they say it's good. I went in expecting a fun action adventure game and got a douchebag simulator that made me jack off my wiimote and wiggle to win gameplay. Honestly the most disappointed I've ever been with a game
